Efforts to repeal Proposition 19’s costly Death Tax On Inherited Property have fallen short for the November ballot initiative. Over 402,000 signatures were obtained to repeal those provisions of Prop 19 which wiped out former Propositions 58 and 193 (those propositions allowed parents to transfer their ‘prop 13 basis’ or ‘proposition 13 basis’ to their children; now no longer due to Prop 19’s changes, thus causing a substantial ‘death tax’ on California inherited property).

California Proposition 19 is a massive property tax hike on the next generation of property owners. It wipes out the current Proposition 58 and Proposition 193 family transfer benefits, effective February 16, 2021. This is potentially the largest property tax increase in California history… but it will only impact the next generations; this is a new death tax and inheritance tax on real property owners’ heirs.
